He said that, for the most part, the Giants/Pats dividing line is similar to that for the Yankees and Red Sox.

“You get above New Haven, and more people support the Boston-based teams than say below New Haven. I was born in Stamford. I’m a New York fan,” he told Farnack. “By the way, I don’t have this divide that a lot of New Yorkers do that you can only be a Jets fan or you can only be a Giants fan. I’m a New York.”

Malloy spoke fondly of going to college with the Maras, the family that owns the Giants.

In pointing out his college years, he mentioned that he graduated from Boston College, where current Giants coach Tom Coughlin used to coach.

“Having said that, my wife is from Massachusetts. So, she’s a BoSox fan and she’s a Patriots fan. So, we are actually a divided household,” he said.

Malloy said while New York fans are full of good nature, Boston fans are completely lacking in it.

He says this Super Bowl will be good for business in Connecticut.

“It’s gonna be fun for everybody,” he said.
